I do wonder about mapping the drive - are you trying to make it available at bootup, or to access it later? and is it really a NAS or a share on a Windows machine?

As for the network wizard: name is the name of the device the network drive is attached to, folder is the path on that device to the actual drive itself. The IP of the device you need to look up on the device, but I have limited knowledge of Win-OS so can't tell you where to look...

I need detailed manual how to map a windows network drive (in Win7 I mapped it as \\192.168.1.1\Media). I have searched many forums but obviously Linux Mint 13 is different because none of the "recipes" work.

I go to network, add network folder, I choose microsoft windows network drive but I can't get anywhere from there. I don't even know when to use slah or backslash. Sorry, I'm a real rookie, but I need to start somewhere.
